City Notes

  • New Delhi: Expect higher retail premiums and active demand; compare hallmark and buy-back terms before purchase.
  • Mumbai: Typically competitive base rates; negotiate making charges where possible, especially for plain jewellery.
  • Bengaluru: Consistent pricing with Chennai/Hyderabad—look for trusted retail chains that offer transparent invoices.
  • Chennai: Strong demand for traditional designs; confirm hallmark and wastage charges for heavy, intricate pieces.
  • Hyderabad: Jewellery remains popular for weddings; check net weight and making charge slabs on the bill.
  • Kolkata: Rates align with other eastern/southern metros in this snapshot; validate BIS hallmark on each piece.

What Drives Today’s Prices

  • Global spot gold: International LBMA/COMEX spot rates set the base; local retail follows these with a lag plus premiums.
  • INR/USD moves: A weaker rupee raises rupee-priced gold; a firmer rupee reduces landed cost for import-dependent supply.
  • Import duties & taxes: Customs duty, IGST and local taxes affect landed cost and can vary by state, influencing retailer pricing.
  • MCX and domestic sentiment: Futures on MCX and local trading volumes shape short-term retail quotes and hedging-related premiums.
  • Local demand and stock: Festival, wedding demand, and retailer inventory positions create city-level premiums and periodic rate differences.

Buyer Tips

  • Prefer BIS hallmark: Ask for BIS hallmark stamps: 999/24K for pure gold, 916 for 22K. Insist on a clear hallmark and invoice.
  • 24K vs 22K: 24K (999) is purer and softer — best for investment coins/bars; 22K (916) is more durable for jewellery subject to everyday wear.
  • Making charges & wastage: These are added to the metal price and vary by design and jeweller. Request charges in rupees (not as a percentage) and get a written breakup.
  • Check buy-back and return policies: Ask whether the jeweller offers buy-back, on what terms, and whether they pay based on gross or net weight.

FAQs

  • Q: Are these prices final for retail purchases today?
    A: These are indicative city quotes for October 29, 2025. Final retail bills will add making charges, taxes and any local premiums set by the jeweller.
  • Q: How do I verify purity at purchase?
    A: Check for BIS hallmark (999 for 24K, 916 for 22K) and ensure the invoice lists karatage and net/gross weight.
  • Q: Why do making charges vary so much between shops?
    A: Making charges reflect labour, design complexity, brand and margins; they are typically fixed by the jeweller and negotiable for larger pieces.
  • Q: Is there a best time of day or month to buy gold?
    A: Prices change intraday with global markets and INR moves; for lower premiums, buy when local demand is low (outside festival/wedding seasons) and watch currency/MCX trends.
